idk who needs to hear this (vaush) but being a skilled debater and being Good With Words does not make you correct.

#just bc you can finesse your audience into believing anything you say bc you're good at convincing them STILL doesnt make you correct #on everything bud. #spewing incorrect shit just bc you know you can get away w convincing ppl of it makes you no better than the alt righters you hate #its like he learned he could convince everyone hes correct if he words things the right way and decided his biased opinions #was what everyone needed to be taught as fact. fucking wild. #'durr its not my fault if my audience uncritically believes everything i say' yeah it kinda is bc you kinda set it up as #'if you dont agree with me you're just dumb and dont know anything' #also even if you jokingly say 'im always right' doesnt mean 1. thats not gonna subconsciously effect you to make you think you Are #and 2. that doesnt mean everyone knows you're joking. #so fucking pissed at him for this. unbiased my ass #maybe he lost a huge chunk of fans all at once so hes doing everything he can to keep the remaining ones not sure #oh well. at least hes not as bad about it as keffals. though i am still starting to get culty vibes from vaushs audience now. #at least the ones perpetually in his chat. #also then again i wouldnt exactly consider keffals anything near a 'skilled debater' #and before any a yall accuse me of kds bitch idgaf about the noodles shit. its dumb. i understand nuance. #unlike yall who are devolving into b/w thinking where you think anyone critical of your faves is just a wokescold with #[enter name] derangement syndrome #only reason i stopped interacting w keffals shit is i realized she would never respect me as a person so yeah. same w vaush quite frankly. #keffals dismissing trans mascs. vaush acting like ppl who believe in shit are all mentally ill. yeah im over them for that shit. #like get fucked you up-your-own-asses elitist tools #ig that one applies to vaush more. keffals just doesnt care about anything but herself it seems like.

welp, didn't manage to get everything out before season 10 started, but i gotta post it one way or another so here we go! heard there was a fandom swap game going on, wanted to do a couple promts of my own :D

#guys with freaky eyes <3 #i really didn't expect season 10 to be so soon what do i do now... #very sorry to all the naruto girlies. there might be a lot of minecraft art for a while 😔 bud ninja stuff is coming too eventually #anyways! about the drawing: #decided to turn hypno into the 'bug tango with 4 arms and antennae' variant instead of a regular one because it's just more fun and unique; #and tango is in his dungeon master color pallett because his regular one looked a bit plain. #and i think hypnosis really fits the theme of a dungeon master and wrangling ravagers. #plus i wanted to use the design i drew a while ago at least once #oh also yeah hypno is a bee here because of his honey shop and stuffs #hypnotizd #tangotek #hermitcraft #my art #sketch #season 10 fanart is coming but later. i wanna post everything in the order it was drawn. so...

More of a silly crack theory than anything

A befuddling moment for me was when Squid Buddy was very adamant about not helping a fellow adventurer out. Perhaps it would've had more logical if Jaheira was not there, but. Jaheira was there, my squiddude.

Maybe Emps still had a hard time believing in the power of friendship???? But uh-

I like to think it was really because the Emperor heard one too many spooky BG2 stories about Minsc during their time in the hive.

don't take this comic seriously, all in light jest Edit: Aight, my two brain cells are working again and realized I coulda just looked at the BG3 Wiki to sort out what's up with the statue thing, HA. Anyway, I still like the idea Emps somehow figured out statue Minsc was real Minsc before he poofed back to normal and got captured, whether the timeline is accurate enough for that to work is still confusing to me and- I'm not gonna think about it~

#bg3 spoilers #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 #jaheira #minsc #the emperor bg3 #bg3 fanart #greygold #bg3 comic #Maybe Emps couldn't handle having another chaotic teammate in the squad. #Emps will gladly ally with lawful evil but chaotic anything else? Gonna have a squid aneurysm #I think this was the point where I concluded that the overall stress of -EVERYTHING- was finally getting to Emps #Bud was So -Done-. Just. So. Done.

really not a fan of boston very explicitly saying "I want to be exclusive romantically but not sexually" only to be told "You're lying to yourself. I think you should be alone."

#like... p'jojo. you gave us 3wbf??? what's going on bud #only friends the series #ofts #am i misinterpreting boston? did I miss something? is this just a poorly executed representation of something else entirely?? #idk this really just did not sit well with me #i love pretty much everything else in this show so i'm disappointed that this was the last thing we got #bc I've been saying this the whole time!! boston DOES want a romantic relationship and he's spent the whole show coming to terms with that #he really does love nick #and he wants romantic exclusivity (see: Boston getting upset and jealous when Nick is with other people) #but physical stuff doesn't need to have the same exclusiveness for him and that's literally fine #idk i just wish that last conversation had been written slightly differently. a couple different wordings could have fixed it all for me #like if Nick had SAID ''i can't do a non-exclusive relationship but i hope you find someone someday who wants that with you'' #that would have been fine #not ''i think you should be alone'' #idk. just really sat wrong with me #lgbt drama #thai drama #theo.txt #100

my favorite headcanon: the only season in jack's whole entire career where he isn't 110% focused on getting to and winning the cup is the one leading up to their wedding. bitty and he did plan around the playoffs, and are getting married later in the summer, but still - for the first time ever, some part of jack thinks it won't be so bad if the falcs get eliminated and he has more time to participate in the wedding preparations with bitty.

so of course, that is exactly the season the falcs win the cup again. bitty can't decide if he's more proud/overjoyed or angry about it.

#omgcp #omgcheckplease #zimbits #bitty: honey I know it's game 4/7 and everything hangs in the balance #but my mother AND your dad called me SIX TIMES today and I think I'm about to commit a crime. call me back #jack (weeks later to his barely sane fiancé): bud. I'm really sorry. but we were winning? and then. well. now I can give you another ring? #haha. uh. bits? maybe put the pie knife down? #headcanons #jack x bitty #text

Actually, no, I disagree. Astarion has his reasons for many things he thinks and disapproves of, but some of them are just ... He doesn't like it when people are nice. He actively likes cruelty. Those are both true.

And yeah, you get why. He's well-written and his motivations are understandable! You can have a lot of very long and sad meta posts about how he thinks cruelty is natural and kindness is fake, but that doesn't remove his joy at cruelty and his distaste for kindness. Those things are still true. He can get better, yes. He does get better if you encourage him to. But he starts out as an absolute jackass.

Stop woobifying him fr. He's a piece of shit, even if he's a well-written one. Just because you understand him doesn't mean he's right or somehow the only sane person in the group. Cruelty is not intelligence, kindness is not a weakness. xoxo <3

#bg3 #like hiraeth understands and respects his need for having his own opinions and his right to be heard and listened to #doesn't mean he's correct somehow or that he's owed obedience or even consideration #like if you suggest killing gnomes for shits and giggles that's like on you bud #that's racism i don't think cazador taught you that<3 #astarion #baldur's gate 3 #like yes he is very damaged and a lot of his attitude comes from that!!! very much so!! #but many of the other companions are deeply damaged as well but they still have it in them to be kind #so i don't think we need to excuse everything unsavory he does with trauma and remove all his agency in perpetuating the cycle #that's what leads you to ascendant astarion #like some of those things are choices my dude

because i'm predictable, what're bobby and chloe up to in the villain au? or how's the dynamic between sam and dogen since he's taken psychoisolation to the extreme?

Bobby's in a pretty similar position to the regular timeline - at least, at first glance. he's overworked and underpaid, constantly crunching to try and keep on top of the ever-growing mountain of paperwork his superiors keep handing down to him.

but i think the trajectory of his character looks pretty different? he never really met Raz at Whispering Rock. he never got humbled by him, never had to suffer the embarrassment of his spot as top dog being yanked away by some new kid... but he also never really got to go through a lot of the character growth from their ensuing rivalry? he's definitely mellower than he was as a kid, but he's got a lot of unresolved issues bubbling under the surface - anger problems, poor self-esteem, a tendency to lash out at authority figures...

he still really believes in the work he's doing, and wants the Psychonauts to be the force for good he knows they can be. but he's carrying a growing burden of stress and exhaustion, stuck in a toxic work environment that's more likely to change him (or just make him snap) than he is to change it.

his only real friend at the Motherlobe is Chloe. Chloe is... well! again, first-glance, not that much has changed. she works the same job in the Motherlobe's engineering and aerospace department, and she still gets to pursue her childhood fascination with space.

but the harsher work culture and the more pragmatic, efficient environment have exacerbated some of her less personable traits. she's blunt, rude, and almost fanatically devoted to her work, to the exception of basically everything else. her workplace safety standards are lax, and her ethics laxer. she'd sell the Psychonauts out for one corn chip if she thought it'd get her better funding for her pet projects

#my thesis is that Raz and Bobby made each other worse and then better #in this timeline Bobby never hit those lows. but he also never got to grow past them and develop as a person #he /hates/ vau Raz. but it's more as this faceless proxy for everything he hates about the Psychonauts #Raz barely even knows he exists. #Chloe and Bobby are still good buds! and maybe on-again off-again something more #but they're both too... (gestures vaguely) to really hold down a stable relationship as they are now #Chloe also never gets to meet Mirtala in this version of events #and she never gets to have that kind of uncomplicated deeply loving friendship with another kid her age #and among other things she's fundamentally much less well-adjusted because of it #but then isn't everyone in this au lol #villains au #SAM AND DOGEN is good also... i need to chew over that one more #much to think about #but i wanted to draw bobby today so here he is

goddd talia's letter to bruce (that she never intended to send! that he only got because damian wanted him to know about it so bad, he stole it from her and brought it to him!) in the batman files... i could really just start screaming and never stop

(transcription under cut)

My Beloved,

There is nothing uncomplicated about what you and I have. The goals of my father, and my dedication to him, are a part of my life and always will be. I know that you've ended things between us, but there is not a single part of me that believes you. While you may say that we are over, I know your eyes. Beloved, I know your eyes too well to believe anything you say.

Because of our complications, you and I will always have secrets between us and thoughts that we cannot share. That is the unfortunate nature of our relationships and of our loyalties. But there is one secret that I've kept from you, which I had no right to keep. All I can do is apologize and hope you can understand why I couldn't tell you this sooner. But I am telling you now.

Your son is alive, Beloved. When you and my father were allies--when you were hunting that man Quayin--I had become pregnant. I let my guard down with you, and you did the same. We were acting out an impossible life, and you were even happy when I told you that you were going to be a father. But when you and my father turned against each other, everything ended. Your eyes told me how silly I'd been to imagine our future, and so I told you I'd lost the child.

But he was fine. Your boy grew inside me, a fighter like his father, but without a chance at the life you wanted for him. I knew he needed more than the violent, lonely world of Ra's al Ghul. So I gave your boy--your beautiful little boy--away. He was placed in an orphanage, and as I've learned, has found a home with a young, caring family.

There is not a day that goes by that I don't think about him. I wonder what he looks like. I wonder how his little voice sounds. And every morning, I think about going to him. I think about taking him back, and raising him myself. I don't know how strong I can be, but I am trying to do what is right for him. There may come a morning when I just can't leave him any longer. There may come a morning when I go and take my boy back.

I've spent too much time, and too many tears on this letter, Beloved, because I have no real intention of mailing it. But I am sorry. I am so sorry that I've kept our son from both of us. And I wish I didn't have to keep all of this to myself.

Yours always,

Talia
